Full Description & Details

Walking along a street in town shortly after 12 midday, I heard several seagulls calling and looked up. Hanging in the sky was a long ribbon like object, constantly spinning and changing shape. After about 30 seconds, it began to rise quickly, high into the sky, a very different shape to when I first noticed it but still quite indistinct. Eventually, it flashed silver twice and appeared as a bright star in the clear blue sky before disappearing out of sight.

domed shaped--windows encircled

Color of Object(s):

pulsated orange, blue, green, etc--do not know the pattern but they were repeated

Full Description & Details

In order to arrive home we had cross a mountain ridge road, cross over the Pa turnpike, and then turn onto the narrow winding road which ran north towards our property of 6 plus acres which spanned both sides of the road. We had several acres of woods and meadows on one side (with creek running through center) and on the other side of the road was our large farm house. Just as we were approaching the curve directly in front of our home my son (he was driving) and I saw a domed shaped, pulsating ufo cross directly above the trees in our woods, cross over our vehicle, cross over the chimney of our home, and descend beyond the corn field behind our home against the mountain backdrop. We saw it clearly and watched it floatlike across in a non erratic pattern--it was domed shaped, rather large, low enough to see a circle of windows, it was noiseless, and pulsated from one color into another as it crossed in front of our direct line of vision. We quickly parked our vehicle, ran into our home and yelled to my other son and nephew who were at home that a ufo had just landed behind the cornfield next to the mountain. We all ran outside and then became terrified, ran back into the house, locked all doors and waited for my husband to return home from his office. We were too frightened to investigate and we did not report the sighting because other residents in the valley reported seeing ufo's, didn't want outsiders to come into the valley, and reporting or discussing was taboo. Several months prior to our sighting a newcomer in the valley came to visit us because he said we were the only Jews in the area and he wanted to know about the Old Testament and how Cain might relate to ufo's. We thought he was crazy. He said everynight a ufo landed behind his rented farm house further up the valley. We really thought he was crazy, were polite, but distanced ourselves from him. He said he had been plagued by ufos all of his life and was written about in a famous ufo book, claimed he had been abducted. Several months later when we returned home on a Saturday midday we found the valley was blocked by government officials but because we lived there we were permitted to go to our home and instructed not to go further up the valley. They seemed to know us on sight but we didn't recognize any of the men who were guarding the road. We called a friend of ours who lived further up the valley to see what the problem was and she said the man (the one who came to visit us) had gone berserk and was shooting at something. She said there was nothing to worry about because he was now sleeping. We sat on our front porch and watched the official vehicles going and coming--we saw an actual "man in black" in a government car pass by. The man vanished and we never knew what happened. We were certain he was crazy but when and how he vanished is a mystery. After seeing the ufo which was like the man described was landing regularly behind his rented farm house we changed our minds about him being crazy. We made inquiries to other residents and were told conflicting stories. We were frightened and didn't ask further questions. Amberson Valley is located near Letterkenny Army Depot. It is an isolated setting. Old-timers talked about seeing strange lights frequently but those stories were not meant to be spoken about to outsiders--my paternal ancestors were some of the original settlers in the valley in the late l700's and thus I was considered one of them even though I wasn't born there and moved there when I was 40 years old--we lived there for 9 years before coming to Israel..

It felt like i was looking at it for ten minutes but it actually was 10 seconds.

white

Full Description & Details

My husband and I were walking in the "Avenues" neighborhood of Salt Lake. I'm not sure of the time, but it was nearing sunset, though still very light. I was admiring the sky and noticed a brilliant light in the sky to the northwest. It was several air miles away and at high altitude. I mistook it for a jet. I thought it was catching a lot of light from the setting sun, however it was unusually brilliant and round (not like the normal reflection of light you might see from a high-flying plane). I was about to call my husband's attention to it - I had just lifted my hand to point to it and started to speak, when the object abruptly turned to the north, at an angle of about 90 degrees to it's previous direction. At the same time the object accelerated to the apparent speed of a "shooting star". In fact, if it had been dark I might have mistaken it for a shooting star, except it's apparent direction was up into the sky instead of down or across the sky. It disappeared before I was able to utter a word to my husband.

Other Comments

I am posting this report now because there was an article in the Salt Lake Tribune today (9/30/04) about a Delta pilot being injured by laser light "flooding the cockpit" of his plane during a 9/22/04 landing approach to the SLC airport. The report of this event was first published in "The Washington Times" on 9/29/04. Both articles omit the name of the pilot and are a bit sketchy on details. After seeing the articles, I did a bit of web research on laser incidents affecting pilots. Apparently this is so frequent an event that the military has developed a laser detection box to install in cockpits so that pilots can be alerted to the potential danger. I have not learned yet whether this application is intended for commercial planes or just for military use. It makes sense that military planes need a detection system to alert pilots when they are being targeted by lasers prior to deployment of enemy air to air missles - but it seems like a detection system for this purpose would have been developed a long time ago. The press release I saw was dated November 2003. I hope to learn more about this.

Full Description & Details

I was sitting in my living room watching TV. My couch is oriented such that to my right I can see out through a large window, looking out over the small patch of urban parkland near my apartment building. It was night, and conditions were clear. I happened to glance outside, and and lround, bright yellow object came across my field of vision, from somewhere above my window. It streaked acroos the sky very, very fast, and I lost it as it flew over the trees that my window looks out upon. I feel that this was an UFO because: The object was moving very, very fast, much fast than a plane or helicopter would. After I thought about it, I considered that it might have been a meteorite, but in my experience meteorites have tail, and this object had no tail, it was just an orb moving through the sky. I live in a very urban area, just outside of Washington, D.C., so I'm very used to seeing planes and helicopters of all types and at all times of day, and this was completely different. The fastest things that usually move across the sky here are the fighter jets, and they are extremely loud. What I saw made no sound.

Full Description & Details

I was driving on I2-15 in an area of NW Las Vegas and noticed this light in the sky out of my window. At first it seemed like it may be a helicopter but then it did something remarkable it started moving eratically. At this point I became intrigued and decided to pull over and check it out. I watched for a few minutes when it seemed to be moving in my direction and for whatever reason this made me feel real panicky. I never really believed in this kind of stuff, but I just had this freaky feeling. I jumped back into my car and took off down the road. When I looked back I noticed it "pacing" me, so I sped up to about 75-80 mph and it stay a distance away but continued to "follow" me for about 15 minutes. At this point I came into a more residential area called Summerlin and had buildings obstructing my view of it for a few minutes . The funny thing is when I could see again it was completely gone! Weird. So I thought I ought to report it...

Full Description & Details

I was looking out the window toward the north east at about 11:00 PM on the 18 of Sept and I saw four curious lights, three of the four lights were in a triangle formation with the fourth light off the front at about 11 o'clock. They were moving east to west. The lights glowed amber quite like dim street lamps. They moved quick ! Altitude was about 1500 to 1800 ft. The four lights moved too fast for NYC air space. I saw them for about 5 seconds due to their speed and buildings blocking my sight. The lights made no sound and had no directional lights. One would hear a great roar if these lights were military air craft. And only the military can probably fly in formation around NYC.
